Appeals Court Rules NSA Phone Program Not Authorized by Patriot Act - wsj

Good news I guess, a small victory.

However I think that is just a simbolic victory, useful only to make 
more people to become aware about surveillance. With the new 
technologies and with all the infrastucture already done record and 
collect the metadata of the phones is too easy, too cheap, too tempting 
to don't do it. And NSA will continuous doing it.

In the other hand I can understand that the civil libertys groups of US 
take care of US citizens, but can any american take care of the people 
of other countrys? We can't legally apeal to any court of US, and we are 
under US goverment's surveillance too.
